Jarr just as an example, MSU is 14th in RPI and just 3-4 vs the RPI Tier 1. They don't have the metrics committee likes. I think they'll be a 3 seed. Maybe a low 2. Could even see them as a 4.

Whoa, a 4? They still have some really good wins and won the B1G. I'll believe it when I see it, but I think they are a 2.

Are you adjusting that based on 2 more losses for UC?

I think the assumption is if we win out, and go 30-4 we would be in line for a 2.

Win tomorrow and make the conference tournament finals we'll be a 2

Just my opinion, I think MSU is the best all around team in the country and not a good matchup for us. Fancy metrics be damned.

Why? They've played a garbage schedule and don't have much outside their starting 5 that we don't have. Bridges and Jackson are studs. As is the white kid who can shoot. But no one else on their team seems too great.

WVA and UK both got skull-dragged...neither should be ranked and I've said it for weeks.

KU got trucked!

I agree msu is excellent. I don't want to draw them. The good metrics agree. Rpi is **** and underrates them.

yeah they are kinda the opposite of us. the rpi makes our resume look better than it probably is, and the rpi makes theirs looks much worse.


they have 9 quad 1 and 2 wins according to rpi. but if you do resumes by kenpom they have 16 quad 1 and 2 wins.


we have 12 quad 1 and 2 wins according to rpi. by kenpom we have 7 quad 1 and 2 wins.

True. Though We have great overall kenpom numbers. Kenpom has UC as the 4th best team in the country.

we do, and with kenpom, your ranking is your resume.


but i was trying to live in a world where your teamsheet was listed based on kenpom rankings instead of rpi

Carolina v. Duke always delivers

Watching Cleveland State make Northern Kentucky sweat in the Horizon tournament.

These last 30 seconds looks like Cleveland State could run away with it if they don't choke.

Sucks for NKU, feel bad for them. I wish them luck in the NIT.

No. 9 NC goes down to No. 5 Duke

WVU lost in OT, not exactly what I would say "skull dragged". You do realize both teams lost to NCAA tournament teams right? What is our record vs NCAA tourney teams this year? 1-4. It's not easy to beat good teams on the road, I would say both teams stay ranked.

The point is. Good teams lose games sometimes. UC fans overreact to each and ever loss. Kansas got stomped by a team that likely won't make the tournament today. WVU got beat by a bubble team (a UCLA/Miss State level team).

Too bad... I'm a pretty big NKU fan, and have watched a bunch of their games. Their defense looks suspect against athletic teams and couldn't stop Cleveland St. Quickness. I have no idea how Cleveland St. record was 10-22 from watching them vs. UC and NKU.
